Hi
 

Hi, my name is Jenni. My husband and I have 9 children, the last four of which we adopted. They were our foster chidren from infancy and all were drug babies with helath issues. Our daughter is 9 years old and was diagnosed with anxiety disorder and bipolar at about 5 years of age. She has been trialed on many medications, they work awhile and then dont. She is a very smart funny caring child and then she is not she cycles all day and is agressive and destructive with explosive outbursts. we are at our wits end to try and help her. We live in a small town with no real psych help and travel 3 hours away to see a psychiatrist. I dint know if anyone has seen the discovery programs about bipolar children, but when we saw it we saw our daughter. I am looking for other parents who can relate, in hopes to find help.
